Drew Afualo is the queen of keeping it real. The social media creator and host of The Comment Section podcast is starring in Venus Gillet's Smoothguard campaign, promoting the brand's pubic razor line. It's all about being comfortable with the stereotypically taboo topics (like our pubic hair) and being unafraid to be body confident this summer.
Throughout all the years Afualo has been online, she has built a special kind of trust with her audience. We trust her and her opinions! E! sat down with her to talk all about her favorite current products. We talked shower essentials, red carpet must-haves, and what's in her music festival survival kit.
"First off, my Gillette Venus razors, my smooth razor, and my public razor, specifically, two different ones, both amazing," Afualo told E!. No need to buy them seperately, though. This set comes with them both!
"I've been using their two-in-one smoothing cleanser shave gel, which has been so wonderful to shave with!" Afualo said. Formulated with aloe and shea butter, this pH-balanced shave gel and cleanser promises to leave you clean, hydrated, and smooth.
"As far as lotions, I've been using the OUAI body butter, but in the St. Barts scent specifically. Love that. LOVE that lotion," Afualo told E!. This body cream is infused with capuacu butter, coconut oil, and squalane. Plus, the scent features notes of dragon fruit, orange blossom, tuberose, and Baltic amber.
"I've been using the OSEA body oil, as well. For the smoothness!" Afualo said. The body oil is formulated with Undaria seaweed, white lupin, and a botanical oil blend (made up of passion fruit, acai, babassu, and rice bran oils) to replenish your moisture barrier, firm, improve elasticity, and moisturize your skin.
"To touch up, I'll always bring a puff, like a powder puff," Afualo told E!. Any puff would do as long as it's soft and travel-friendly, like this velour one by e.l.f. cosmetics that promise to set your base makeup in a blurred, soft matte finish.
"There's this Makeup Forever pressed powder that I love. It's like a tinted pressed powder. LOVE that one!" Afualo said. This lightweight powder delivers on smoothing lines and blurring pores for a matte (but never dry) complexion. It's available in seven skin-matching and color-correcting shades.
Afualo also told us that she always has the Charlotte Tilbury mini Airbrush Flawless setting powder (emphasis on the mini version). It's infused with rose wax, almond oil, and light-reflecting pearlescent pigments to soften, nourish, and diffuse light as it hits your skin (perfect for photos!).
"I've been using a One/Size powder, like the little mini loose powder touch-up," Afualo said. Available in seven shades, this weightless, sweat-proof setting powder promises to smooth, absorb excess oil, and remove shine.
"I always bring Listerine strips, specifically, or a Listerine spray. Like gum is great, but when you're talking into a mic and chewing, it's awful for a lot of people, and also, visually, it doesn't look the best. So, I definitely want fresh breath," Afualo told E!.
For Drew Afualo, aluminium-filled deodorants are a must-have for both music festivals and the red carpet! "Deodorant, need her. Aluminum in it, need that," she said. "Some people who go there don't believe in that. Um, you need it. It's hot."
"I would say a fan. A rechargeable fan, specifically," Afualo told E!. "There's a JISULIFE one that was gifted to me that literally is my lifeblood. I'm going to leave that in my will. That's how important that fan is to me."
"I would say electrolytes. You need but not you need Pedialyte ones or like liquid IVs, but specifically Pedialyte, that's like the one you drink when you're sick. You need that. You need to hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. That's like the biggest thing," Afualo said.
